The journalists at the New York Times have investigated and analyzed the financial records of Donald Trump and his businesses. They have come to the unsurprising conclusion that as a business man he is a tremendous loser and is under investigation for tax fraud. Because of his business failures, he has paid no federal income tax for ten of the last fifteen years and only paid $750 each in 2016 and 2017. Within the next four years he has over $400 million in personal loans coming due. Does he owe money to Valdimir Putin? Would explain a lot. “Fake News” declares Trump.
Trump can quickly prove that it is fake news by releasing his tax returns as all other modern presidents have done before him. The fact that they have been under audit for ten years does not exclude them from being made public. This way he could prove that he is not a loser and tax dodger. Trumpists don’t care but the rest of us may resent the fact that he has been picking the pockets of us honest tax payers for many years.
